St. Michael’s Tower in Dublin
Dublinia’s late seventeenth century viewing tower belonged to the church of St Michael’s the Archangel, which once stood at the site now occupied by Dublinia.
The original medieval tower, of the medieval St Michael’s church, was incorporated into the design of the Synod Hall. Remnants of the tower’s medieval past can be seen in the footprint of the nineteenth century building.
It is now part of your Dublinia visit and visitors can now climb 96 steps to the top, where you can see spectacular views of the city.
Come see our exhibition at the base of the tower where you can learn all about its history and that of the surrounding parish. What were firebuckets used for, see maps of medieval Dublin and learn all about the stone masonry of the St. Michael’s Tower Dublin.
